Floor Prep ideas please

So this is not what I was hoping for on uplift. (But probably should have expected.
Probably latex based LC coming away with vinyl flooring. In varying degrees and where it doesn't old Addy residue.
The original screed is poor as well. So thinking grind off old leveller and worst high spots of original screed before new SLC.
Anybody got any better ideas or tips, I'm up against it time wise on this job so could do without the extra time..

Just remove loose, then straight over with ardex? Very thin layer of screed coming up with the LC in places.

Hit thin layer of slc with hammer and will probably pop up sweep, and use this

Used rakes of that for other floor coverings over the years. Never used it under tiles. I'm putting a 30k kitchen on too of them so wanted to make sure I get it right

I don't think this product is meant for this situation, pretty sure it states floor needs to be level and sound

I ended up removing all the old levelling compound and the worst of the high spots And used arditex na. Fixing with ardex adhesive too
